some of the properties that the above ECAN equations display when we use an ECAN defined by them as an associative memory network in the manner of a Hopfield network. We consider a situation where the ECAN is supplied with memories via a "training" phase in which one imprints it with a series of binary

orks Economic Attention Networks (ECANs) are dynamical systems based on the propagation of STI and LTI values. They are similar in many respects to Hopfield nets, but are based on a different conceptual foundation involving the propagation of amounts of (conserved) currency rather than neural-net activa

ical structure and less of a tie to the spatiotemporal structure of physical reality. The latter view is the one we are primarily taking within the CogPrime AGI approach, viewing perceptual, motoric and goal hierarchies as "lower level" subsystems connected to a "higher level" system based on the CogPrime A

Here we briefly preview the basic cognitive processes that the CogPrime AGI design uses for these roles, and the synergies that exist between these. 8.3.1 Cognitive Processes in CogPrime : a Cognitive Synergy Based Architec
